garniture is principally confined. The
foot of the skirt in front is finished with
full ruching, sometimes of tulle,
through which loops of satin or MORE
ribbon are intersperSed, or of lace or the
dress material, and sometimes the
French fashion is followed of using a
garland of orange blossoms set in lace.
A notable bridal dress is of rich ivory
satin, made in the style of the sixteenth
century, with long, perfectly plain
court train, the front ernamented with
three flounces of point lace, each headed
by embroidery of pearls and silver, and
the foot finished with "a garland of
orange blossoms. The pointed bodice
is embroidered with pearls and silver
and finished with a high Medici collar,
similarly embroidered. Another is of
ivOry-white faiile Franchise, with
square, perfectly plain court train, the
front draped with Duchesse lace, over a
fOOt-ruching of tulle, and satin loops,
and the corSage cut square in the neck
and trimmed with ruchings of tulle and
ribbon and sprays of orange blossoms.

literary, artistic and financial world.
There was dancing everywhere; in the
salons, hall, dining-roem, and even
in the Supper-room. The german,
which did not begin until 4,
O'Clock in the morning, was led by Mile.
Helene and Count de La Sale. In fact
this ball was the event of the season
and it was not an unimportant event in
Helene de RothSchild's life, for her she
met the one who was to be the cause of
her eScapade. He belongs to a fine old
Dutch family, and his name is Van z.
AS is well known, the RethsehildS be-
lieye in the marriage of cousins, and
this is really the Hebrew idea of mar
rage. The Talmud even commands a
young man to take wife from his own
kindred, and Helene de Rethsehild was
destined for one Of her cousins.
The poor mothers plans have been
sadly disarranged; she opposed her
daughters marriage with one not of her
race, not Of her religion, until one
morning about a week ago Helene could
not be found; she had disappeared and
left nothing to explain her flight. Dur
ing the day the baroness received a let
ter saying that her daughter was with
her maid at the Hotel Friedland, where
she intended to remain until her mother
would conset to her marriage with the
one she had chosen for her hus-
band. The distracted mother sent for
her brother-in-law, Baron Aiphonso,
who is now the head of the Rothschild
family. Helene was summoned; there
were threats and entreaties, entreaties
and threats, until finally the sensible
uncle decided that if the young man be
not of their race, at least he is gentle
man, that if he did not possess great
wealth, his family had for centuries
ranked with the highest mobiles in the
country, and the marriage was arranged
to take place i'll July.

HORSES AND OZONE.
The Rarified Atmosphere Said t
Make Horses Nervous.

The Rarified Atmosphere Said to
Make Horses Nervous.
A few minutes past O'Clock the other
afternoon, gray horse went down Sixth
street at speed of about two jumps to
a block. His ears lay back on his neck
and he worked SO regularly that novice
of horse flesh would have staked hthe
money he had that the horse had only
one joint in his body, and that ran
through him half way between his ears
and his tail.
Ed COPELAND, of the Burlington &
Northern road, stood on the corner of
Sixth and Robert streets and watched
the pale horse cleaye the air in the direc-
ton of eternity, and to GLOBE reporter,
who stood near him, said:
81 don't believe there is but one other
city in the United States that has as
many runaways as this, and that is
Denver. l have knocked about the
Western hemisphere considerably, and
haven't struck a city outside of Den
yer where horses show such decided
F-taste for running away as they do in st.
Paul."
Ed COPELAND, although railroad man
by profession, having worked his way
from the roof of a freight car to an up
holstered chair in the managers Office,
is by nature veterinarian, and can tell
more about the anatomy of horse and
it's peculiaritieS than the majority of
men who make living by daily aSSoci-
ating with equines. He says that the
ozone that fills the atmosphere of Min
neSota has the same effect on the lower
animals that it does ON man, and, in
nine cases out of ten, if an old, broken
down, hat-rack of horse, just ready
for the dumping ground or oleomarga-
rine factory in New York, is brought to
this state he will brace up
under the exhilerating influence of
the atmosphere and develop into a first
class runaway inside Of three months.
He says he has made a close study of
the horses in this city and finds that al
most without exception they. are high
spirited, nervous and not to be de-
pended upon as StayerS when left
unhitched by the curbstone. They
may look sleepy, but their ears and
their skin are sensitive, and when they
are irritated the horse flies off at tan
gent. In Denver, Col, he found that
horses were full of mettle, held their
heads high and were extremely nervous.
The condition was SO marked in the
horses. of that country that if man left
a horse in the streets of Denver UNI
hitched, he was liable to heavy fine
| and hitching in that city didn't mean a
four or five ounce weight hanging at the
end of a strap and attached to a bit, but
a good, substantial anchorage to an iron
post or stout ring in the curbStOne.

Fashion says that the beau shall wear

For fact, he will hardly take his even

quisite tints, with inch-wide lines of

gowns are made withblouse waists. with
pretty ribbon belts and streamerS at one
side, or their simple charming effect is
added to by girdles and chatelaines of
silver, hammered, set with Rhine stones
or in filigree. Bangle bracelets, lace
pin and dog collar laid over hand of
velvet are often added, these matching
the girdle or belt in design.

skirts, two directly opposite styles. One

will sacrifice every principle of cOnSiS-
tency to satisfy their inherent desire for
rich and elaborate outer dress"
The GLOBE reporter came to the con-
cllsion that the dry goods clerk was a
dyspeptic, cynic or sore head, at outs
with the world and it's ways generally,
and paid but little heed to his chatter.
A few minutes later a very pretty girl,
with very plump figure and a very
sweet smile, came through the doorway
and tripped down the store to the lace
department.
|, watch her." said the clerk in an I'M
dertOne, as he hurried down behind the
counter to wait On the girl.
She was indeed beautiful young
woman, perhaps nineteen years of age.
Health danced in her sparkling brown
eyes and glOwed in her rosy cheeks.
Long. dropping eyelaSheS, sweet, red
lips, teeth that shOne like pearls, a
wealth of auburn hair curled gracefully
around beautifully nodded head,
shoulders and arms that looked like the
dream of "a sculptor illustrated in ala
baSter, thinly covered with black lace,
and the air of princess, rendered her
living pictur that would attract the
attention of any artist.
She chatted and fiirted with the clerk
as she pulled over the pile of laceS that
he spread before her and purchased a
half yard of this, yard of that and
inquired for amber ornaments, and
asked to be shown some summer silks,
all of which she invested in to some eX-
tent.
When she had finished her shopping
and had the packages in her arms she
babe the clerk a sweet goOd-day and
tripped lightly out of the store. Just as
she passed the GLOBE reporter she gave
him swift glance out of the corner of
her eyes and half smiled as she diSap-
peared through the doorway.
Il just think I'll keep eases on that
for awhile" said the reporter to the
clerk as he slipped through the door and
followed the girl with the packages.
She moved along the street with the
grace of sylph until she reached the
Fourth street crossing, when she lifted
her skirts slightly to keep them from the
dust as she crossed the street. She had
taken about two steps when with a gasp
the reporter stopped and leaned up
against a lamp post for support. 1t was
then that he began to realize that the
dry-goods clerk was right in his estima-
ton of woman, for the Sylph that had

heavier than in the old game, and code
OF rules regulates the PLAYERS.
Z Inc hoops are thrown from the sticks
with a good deal of force, and in all
sorts of ways, from one player to an
I other. The trick is to catch the flying
hoop on the baton. 1t is possible to
Send the hoop on almost level line
. over distance of 100 feet, but such
long throws are not necessary according
to the rules.
! ghe knack of throwing is said to be
nq9very difficult to acquire, and almost
any person can learn by observation the
method OF handling the sticks and de-
J. 4vering the hoops. At first, to the I'M
initiated spectator, the game seems
somewhat mOnOtOnOuS, since there Is
little running about or fielding; but to
tae experienced players it is evidently
exciting, because, the latter allege, no
small amount of skill and a great deal
OF variety is required in the various
throws and catches. There are several
} experienced players in the Ringoal as
ISOLATION, a new club just organized.
| There are several advantages about
TINS new game. In place of requiring a
large plot of level ground, as in croquet
or lawn tennis, ringoal may be played
along the margin of q grassy lawn, or
ON board walk or dirt court for-,that
matter, as not much space is required.
On an ordinary tennis court at least
half dozen games of ringoal may be
!, played simultaneously, and il may even
be carried Oh over irregular grounds
where other games would beimp0ssibIe.
~. One of the merits of the game is; to
train the eye and develop the muscles of
the chest and shoulders, thus insuring
an erect carriage of the body- md hri n o.
ing the players to graceful attitudes.
There is more style, S0-called, in playing
ringoal than any other game. for the
pOsturing may be made very effective.
The muscles are brought into play
equally on each side of the body, unlike
tennis, where only the right arm is de-
veloped ordinarily.
81 A quick eye is necessary in playing
ringoal well, as the difficult feature is
the receiving. A good server sends the
hoop along swiftly close TO the ground,
and the receiver must be agile enough
to thrust the baton into it from above
and save it for count
